Off-the-beaten-path holidays in Chile
One of the best things to do on holiday in Chile is get off-the-beaten-path and travel to remote and beautiful sites.
Chile has a unique geographical landscape of glaciers, mountains, desert, altiplano and deep fjords and vast ice-caps.
We can get you away from the crowds, into the hidden valleys of Torres del Paine National Park.
Travel further afield and explore fjords that time forgot, with glaciers that can be reached by water only.
Choose to wander through the huge forests of Auracarias and southern beech trees that carpet the land.
Relax on Easter Island with its mysterious Moai or head to Cape Horn – get off-the-beaten-path in Chile.
Our trip was fantastic.
As our friends did for us/you, I would not hesitate in recommending Andean Trails to anyone else planning a trip to Chile.

Testimonials
I just wanted to let you know how extremely pleased we were with Tom Shearmans work on helping us plan our recent bike trip to Chile/Argentina. He was extremely responsive and informative right from the start and he made the whole experience of planning such a big trip that much easier and smoother. He was always very pleasant and amiable in his communications and even helped keep me from panicking when the down payment I sent for the holiday went half way around the globe before it got in to the right account! Based on our experience with Tom, I would certainly recommend your company to anyone looking to plan a holiday in South America and we would certainly use him again should we venture again to that part of the world.
